As long as you're not planning to print larger than 11x16, the detail from long shots is acceptable, though not great. The harder part with such a long lens is getting the camera to focus on the correct subject; in a lot of these shots, the camera kept focusing on the fountain instead of the bird. There's also quite a bit of fringing on the highlights on the fountain, which become quite visible in 8x10 prints.(1/250 sec, f5, ISO 64, spot metering, 624mm equivalent)
